coolant leak

I posted a while back about a small coolant leak towards the rear of the block, engine/passenger side. Many here thought the last exhaust manifold stud would be the issue. It does make sense being it goes into a water jacket. Unfortuantley dosn't look to be the case. There is still a small leak but I don't think it's coming from there. Last time I was under it looked like between the head and block was slightly wet. Just a small spot though. I only have 10,000 miles on this engine I wouldn't expect a head gasket to be going bad on me. Do the head bolts ever come loose over time? It only leaks if it sits overnight after a drive. I also wanted opinions on stop leak. Such as bars radiator stop leak. Does the stuff really work? I have seen the bottles and it looks like a thick sand material. I'd be nervous dumping that in my radiator.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks
